...dining room at Gramercy Tavern, one of New York City's top restaurants, is set for a tasting. Kevin Garry, Gramercy's assistant beverage director, has lined up five glasses and five bottles on the long wooden table. First, Garry pours a 2002 Schneider Aventinus from Germany. It's caramel colored, with hints of nutmeg and banana bread. Next up is a spicy Hitachino from Japan, followed by a 1998 Rogue Old Crustacean from Oregon, with sherry and port qualities. "This is the new torch holder," he says as he fills a fourth glass with J.W. Lees Harvest...

Like an haute couture fashion house, Hermé rolls out a new collection every fall and spring. Sophisticated flavor combinations like green tea and chestnut bring simple pleasures to a new level...
...public company, Starbucks is under constant pressure to grow same-store sales to make investors happy. Fair enough. So, like every other retailer, you've asked the question: What else can I run through this retail box? First it was more complicated, more expensive drinks - your caramel macchiatos, your white chocolate caffe mochas. You guys are actually proud that there are 10,000 different drink combinations. Are you insane? Don't you know what happens when you increase complexity in any business process? Steve Jobs makes 10 products. Seems to be working out pretty well...
